Whoo Hoo! Get the Icy Hot ready for some sore muscles!

Oh and pre-drilling is worth the time.

It doesn't look very predator proof yet.

I want to see more pics, I'm very impatient.

I've got the nail gun all hooked up to the compressor, I've got the extension cord and the circular saw out, the saw horses are set up. I'm ready to roll!!! Lunch first, coop next.

Good luck and be careful, I almost cut a finger off the other day with my hand-held circular saw.
 
Behold! It is no longer just a pile of wood! It is now two walls and a slightly smaller pile of wood!

More photos! Alas, this is all I will be able to accomplish this weekend. Apparently the lumber yard where I'm getting my railroad ties from closes at noon on Saturday!
This is the coop area. It's a raised coop as you can see. I wasn't planning on having exterior nest boxes, but I'm thinking about changing my mind. I'm not so far along I can't add it on!

And this is the front door/front wall of the run.

IMHO exterior nest boxes is a GREAT idea with the smaller coops (I have 5 coops)!
